Citizens Bank Park
There is no sweeter sight than seeing one of Philadelphia's most beloved athletes return to the field for the first time all season. Chase Utley returned tonight in what the fans knew might be a terrible game for Phillies pitching. Raul Valdes was tonight's spot starter in what would be one interesting ballgame. Your browser […]
Photo: Philliedelphia/Frank Klose The Phillies are looking to take this four-game set tonight as they look to win their third straight game. The Phils' offense has been heating up during the end of this homestand, especially behind the bats of Jimmy Rollins and Carlos Ruiz. Tonight's starter for the Phillies will be Raul Valdes. […]
Vance Worley took the hill tonight for the Phillies against lefty Eric Bedard of the Pirates. With the team playing more aggressive than ever this season, the remainder of this series is sure to be entertaining. The Phillies jumped ahead early tonight with an RBI single from the hot-hitting Carlos Ruiz. He plated Hunter Pence […]
According to MLB.com's Todd Zolecki, Phillies second baseman Chase Utley is currently at Citizens Bank Park. Zolecki reports that Utley is on the field playing catch with infielder Mike Fontenot. Zolecki also notes that Utley is working out here today, tomorrow he will go play for Triple-A Lehigh Valley and will be back in Philly […]
Cole Hamels and David Price squared off this afternoon in the first game of a double-header. Friday's game was washed out, pushing a game back to 6:35 tonight, and starting this game 30 minutes early. It was a scoreless battle between the Phils and Rays until the sixth inning when Jimmy Rollins jacked a solo […]
David Herndon had Tommy John Surgery this afternoon. Freddy Galvis was suspended 50 games after testing positive for PED's. Laynce Nix suffered a set-back thanks to a strained left calf today. Michael Stutes needs surgery on his shoulder to figure out what's wrong. Needless to say, this win tonight was much needed with all of […]
(Philliedelphia/Danielle Wilson) Cliff Lee in June, 2011: 5-0, 0.21 ERA. Lee's month of June last year was quite frankly the greatest month I've ever seen a pitcher have. I'm sure Cliff Lee was tired of losing or getting a no-decision, so he pitched like his dominant self tonight. However, the offense would continue to fail […]
The Phillies welcomed Los Angeles to Citizens Bank Park with a soggy game one of a four-game series this evening. Vance Worley was limited to 75 pitches in his first start back from the DL with a sore elbow. He will pitch the remainder of the season with a bone chip, but that didn't […]
In the rubber match of this Marlins-Phillies series, big Joe took the mound against big Z, Carlos Zambrano. Blanton was looking to redeem himself from his past couple of starts in which he was lit up. He is 4-5 this year with a 5.05 ERA. Zambrano is 3-3 this year with a 3.00 ERA. Miami […]
Just another one of those games in which you'd rather throw your tv out of the window than have to watch Roy Halladay suffer another loss. Charlie Manuel posted his 80,000th lineup of the season… It wasn't one we'll be seeing in more games down the stretch. Hector Luna, tonight's first baseman, hit a ground […]
